Warning, Construction & Information SignsStandalone practice
You drive on a country road and see a yellow diamond sign with a black car and two wavy tire tracks behind it. What does the sign warn you about?
Correct answer: The road ahead can be slippery when wet, so slow down
Why
On a slippery road, brake, steer and speed up gently, and leave more space to the car ahead. The manual warns never to use cruise control in rain or snow, because the car can speed up if the tires hydroplane. In cold weather, bridges, ramps and shady places can also have black ice when the road looks dry.
